Dudley will start at power forward Monday for the Clippers, the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

Blake Griffin will miss Monday's game with an ailing back, and Dudley will play out of position, as the Clippers' lack of frontcourt depth will force them into a small-ball starting lineup. Dudley has seen just 29 total minutes over his last three games, so it's hard to project him to come in and have a big impact as a severely undersized four.
